Hector POV

| had questions for Jude and I'll be damned if | leave Kala alone at my pack. It was his pack's turn to hold a group

pack banquet and | wasn't going to go, but | think it would help Kaia to get to know other pack leaders,

especially before her council hearing. Also long term, it would help her cause with the Nightshade Reformed pack

having carved out her own alliances.

The journey in the car, albeit always short when going to Jude's pack, was quiet.

Kala was quiet, she was overthinking things again. She was even quiet with Jude as he greeted her, before taking

her with him and Edmund for a tour of the pack.

| needed to visit the library, and | needed to visit it alone.

| had been in the library for about an hour when Jude walks in checking up on me.

"Don't worry, Kaia's with Edmund. How's it going?"

"Nothing new." | sigh out. | was now just going around in circles with the research, | wasn't learning anything new

which was frustrating me. Whoever this person Jude has contact with, it was t| met with her.

"I have..." His admission excites me.

"And?"

"She is willing to meet with you."

"Great, where...when?"

"Tell her what?" | seethe through gritted teeth. | was keeping Kaia's true identity away from her inner circle ...I

hadn't even told Alora of my findings yet.

"She has only agreed if you bring Kaia with you."

"Not a fucking chance."

"I get it, but the only reason she agreed was if she got to meet the White Wolf herself. Just think about it." Jude

perches against the desk as | place the last few books away.

"Can she be trusted?" I turn to him, | could trust Jude but what about this contact of his.

"I have no reason not to trust her, but we can play it safe. We can keep Kaia out of the first meeting, but..."

"But?" | don't like buts.

"She's a rogue from the original pack...she was casted out from what | understand for speaking up against

| didn't like the sound of that. Kaia wasn't a bargaining tool and if | wanted to keep her out of this, then I will.

Once we are marked it's going to be harder to keep things from her, keep my emotions in check. We walk back

towards the direction of the alpha house, when Edmund walks towards us. No sign of Kaia

in sight.

"Where's Kaia?"

"She's fine Alpha, she wanted squiet time. She's in the pool." Edmund replies calmly.

What?" Pure panic erupts throughand it's my wolf that reacts before me, and | don't try to stop him.

My clothes shred to pieces aroundas | let him control the shift. He rashes towards the alpha home, jumping

over the back wall into the garden where the pool comes in sight.

"Alpha wait..." Edmund shouts out, both he and Jude racing behind me, still in their human forms.

My wolf shiftsback, as my mind skips back to when I pulled her lifeless body out of the ocean that would

have otherwise claimed her for itself. Flashbacks force themselves onto me, | was back at the cliff tops...

"Kaia." | roar as | jump into the pool pulling her outstretched arm to me.

Relief washes overwhen she reacts to my abrupt motion, as she fights against me, gasping for air. "What are

you doing?" She pushes against my chest shouting atas she wipes her eyes of water.

"| thought you were drowning."

"I was floating."

"Floating... What the fuck are you thinking." | roar at her exasperatedly.

She moves away from me, her body fighting against the water as quickly as she can. Her eyes turn to Jude and

Edmund standing by the edge of the pool. She swims up to them, lifting her hand out for them. to pull her out,

leavingnaked in the middle of the pool. She wraps a towel around her before turning back, glaring daggers

at me, her anger pushing atthrough the bond.

She was so angry that she didn't realise half of her panties had risen up her bum. My eyes glare at the two males

to find them staring at her as she walks away.

They both turn their heads back atwhen | growl threateningly at them, their eyes watchingas | pull
